Bottom line: The White House is being renovated (not remodeled), including (but not limited to) a complete replacement of the heating, ventilation and air conditioning system, parts of which date back to the 1940s.

As a result, our nation gets to take a 17-day vacation from the efforts of the Trump administration.

as i said up in the thread before the flame fest, the white house has been undergoing renovations for decades......

The renovations are 100% needed, but I find it curious that President Trump says that both the deteriorating and outdated materials, as well as the parts of the White House that are up to code and not causing any problems, are equally to blame for the much needed repairs.

The renovation plans were drawn up and approved in 2014. They were signed off on by then President Barack H Obama. It isn't just bringing the White House up to code. There are many things that need to be updated.
